I had the best of intentions to post my menu plan for this week yesterday, but it was such a full day that I didn’t happen. So, better late than never!
I saw a meme about menu planning during Thanksgiving week that I found really funny. It read…
Family: Mom, what’s for dinner this week?
Mom: You’ll eat on Thursday.
Unfortunately, I don’t have the luxury of just not planning my meals until Thursday, but we are eating very simple and light meals leading up to the one big meal that matters this week. And then I’ll take the rest of the week off from cooking thanks to leftovers and pizza delivery.
Here’s our menu plan for this week:
Monday – Chicken Burrito Bowls
Tuesday – Beef Tacos (EA is actually in charge of this meal because Keith and I are going out on a date to visit the Weisbaden Christmas market that opens today!)
Wednesday – Spaghetti; Salad; Garlic Bread
Thursday – Thanksgiving Dinner (menu below)
I’ve perfected our Thanksgiving menu through the years and pretty much keep to the same menu each year, with few exceptions.
These are the foods that grace our Thanksgiving table…
Roasted Turkey
Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Smothered Green Beans
Southern Cornbread Dressing
Strawberry Pretzel Salad
Dinner Rolls
Pecan and Pumpkin Pie for dessert
Friday – leftovers
Saturday – leftovers day 2
Sunday – Pizza Delivery
What’s on your menu this week?
I pray you have a wonderful Thanksgiving week!!
